Description Iges Seem 2004-02-28 17:17:43 UTC
Version:           1.2 (using KDE 3.2.0, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.3
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.24

Since most KDE apps have hot keys (shortcuts) why not umbrello. I like to make as much screen space available for the diagrams as possible so I undock the documentation and tree view windows.

I can make those wins active using alt+tab but it would be much faster to use a shortcut to show/hide (not changing focus) the documentation and/or tree view wins. Show/hide would also not clutter the taskbar (alt+tab) since most
of us are running multiple programs at the same time ;)

regards,
Iges.

What you're after is a shortcut to "Show only diagram window" and hide all the others.  A good idea.

Well basically yes, but a shorcut feature in general like in Kate for example, would by nice. Since there are lot of operations that could benefit form it.

Such as adding a new attribute to a class, currently if the class is selected it's possible to right click and from the popup menu to choose New->Attirbute. If it would be possible to assing a shortcut to New->Attribute then one would just have to select the a class on diagramm and press the shortcut to get the new attribute (attribute properties) dialog box.

And there other featers that could use the same logic. New->Operaton, Show->...,
Rename and so on.
